The Mexican stand-off (Runner has won!)

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Thu Jul 02, 2015 4:56 am

Post by Sméagol »

I was under the impression this would be allowed here, so here goes.

It's a short game where the goal is to be the last man standing. Depending on the number of players, it will last 30 minutes to 1 hour (or longer if I get an unexpected large number of players). There are no day-nightcycles, there's no lynching, there's only the killing of your fellow players. Rounds are 5 minutes. To add a
little
bit of strategy, there is a rock/paper/scissor element in play. Game will be played in this thread, and start at 20:00 CET, when I have at least 5 players. If it sounds interesting, sign-up, and read the details below.

Players?

[01] PokerFace
[02] Wisdom
[03] Runner
[04] ZZZX
[05] Netherspite
[06] ?

(you can use colour tags in your name when you sign up, this will show up in the results).

Game starts: (expired on 2015-07-04 01:00:00)


Rules & mechanics


Gameflow

Rounds of 5 minutes, with another minute for me to process the actions and to post the results. When I post
Round
X
has started
, you can post your actions for that round.

Win condition

Kill your fellow players, and be the last man standing.

Actions

Each round you can send in your action. There are 4 actions you can take:
idle
,
dodge
,
shoot
target
, and
focus
. They're explained below. Send them in by sending a PM with
Round
X
:
action
target
(target only when the action is shooting). Don't send in actions before the round has started, they won't count.

Idle

This is the default, when you miss the deadline. You don't want this.

Dodge

You will dodge every bullet coming your direction, except when the player is using a focus attack.

Shoot

Attempt to shoot your fellow player.

Focus

You're an easy target this turn, but next turn you'll have priority when you shoot, and your shot will be undodgeable. This is a focus attack.

Timing

Timing is important for shooting, but not for dodging.
- If 2 players shoot each other, the player who sent in their PM first will win the duel.
- If player 2 shoots player 3, but player 1 shoots player 2
and
sent in his action first, player 2 will be killed, and player 3 survives.
- If player 1 shoots player 2, but player 2 dodges, it doesn't matter who sent in their PM first. The attack will miss and player 2 survives either way.
- If player 1 shoots player 2
and
used focus the previous turn, and player 2 shoots player 1
and
sends in his PM first, it doesn't matter, and player 1 will win the duel regardless.

Last bump, or, like I said, I'll try again Sunday.
And/or I may run my all vigilante mafia on Sunday and/or a zombie mafia which I don't know if it'll even work.

given this games simple setup i see no reason why it can't be run during other games so you should run it during kitty's game. I'll withheld my second game for now as its more complex than this game
